I cannot use a recipe for my life; however, I am a master at improvising recipes and making them taste good.
I hesitate too cook all the time because I don't want to wash the dishes after.
I can prepare cereal, peel an orange, heat things up, follow a basic recipe, etc... That's about the extent of my cooking abilities.
It actually doesn't make any sense seeing that my grandpa owned a deli, that entire side of my family worked there, my mom cooks WELL almost daily, and my uncle is a professional. Guess I didn't inherit that gene
